“Holy Shekhinah Shines Through All” Song Video

Shekhinah (shĭ-kē′nə, -KHē′-, -kī′-) is a feminine Hebrew word translated “dwelling” and denotes the dwelling of Divine Presence and the glory of the Divine (Exodus 29:45; 40:34-38). She is a visible manifestation of Divine Presence.

Moses first encountered the glory of Shekhinah in the burning bush (Exodus 3:1-14). Later when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the commandments on stone tablets, his face shone with Her glory (Exodus 34:29-30).

Our world longs for Shekhinah to bring us rebirth, lift us from violence, and break down walls so there will be justice and peace.

Holy Shekhinah shines through Earth;
She is the Light bringing us rebirth.
Holy Shekhinah shines through Earth;
She is the Light bringing us rebirth.
She is shining on all;
Shekhinah is shining on all.

Holy Shekhinah shines through sky;
She is the Light lifting us up high.
Holy Shekhinah shines through sky;
She is the Light lifting us up high.
She is shining on all;
Shekhinah is shining on all.

Holy Shekhinah shines through all;
She is the Light taking down each wall.
Holy Shekhinah shines through all;
She is the Light taking down each wall.
She is shining on all;
Shekhinah is shining on all.
